If you'd applied yourself like this at school you wouldn't need to get Veeky Forums in the first place

I'm starting law school in September for criminal law. I took up lifting because having a nice body makes me feel more confident in myself, and I would imagine confidence is something I'll need when I'm standing in front of a judge trying to get a guy off for stabbing his wife.

ESS is dope, it's like basically walking into Veeky Forums when you go into the ESS building. Also, hands down hottest chicks outside of education.

>uni
Union electrician here.

Just finished first year med, enjoy working at starbucks when you are finished.

I climb oil rigs.

I just started my residency. Many of us here simply enjoy lifting. I don't know why you guys like to pretend that we're all failures and dumb jocks.

What kind of residency bruv? Are you not in the US? Wasn't match day just a few weeks ago?

Math grad here. Ask me anything anout TQFT.

You guys are all acting like your shitty degrees are cool.
Protip, they're not

Only respectable degree here

Physics major btw

Engineering Physics here. you ain't shit

Physics major here. Shits hard.

Chemistry postgrad, eat shit

Is school hard

I'm going to study Physics next year!

I know it's hard, but are you satisfied? I mean it's supposed to be interesting right?

Would you say Physics major is harder than Comp. sci or math?

If you're the type of person who didn't give a fuck enough in high school to get top marks, won't be pursuing a career that doubles as your hobby, and don't have an adderall prescription... don't waste your time and money on college. You'll want to kill yourself after its all said and done.

What are you talking about dude of course Veeky Forumsizens are the top tier elite, just look at any post in any thread other than this one for proof. This is the only board on Veeky Forums that isn't infested with underage /r9k/ and /pol/ crossposters afterall.

Everything in physics except stat mdch is interesting
t. Grad student in cond. mat.

I dropped out because I realized I didn't enjoy studying. I now invest and run a side business where I buy and resell shitty homes after I fix them up with a friend. I make more than 90% of people who I know graduated.

> Thinking an engineering/med/math degree will automatically make your life made

Have fun getting cuck'd when the company you want to work for hires Chad over you because he's more socially competent.

What does >t. mean?

I studied law. In retrospect, I regret it.

You USA fuckers have no idea how much I envy your school system.

t. a dude who failed 1st year of med studies after his baccaleaureat, now a 21 years old NEET with no prospects in life.

I want to kill myself every. Single. Day.

I'm not the same guy

I've just quit my research position in physics because it's bullshit. Research is awful, you think you'll be working at the LHC but 90% of my day was staring at fucking excel. Almost all research topics are boring as shit unless you love materials science (hint: no one does, it's the worst part of physics). You're under constant pressure to publish, so much that my boss falsifies results fairly often. Your work will be meaningless, it's just to get papers out as quickly as possible.

I now work writing software for physics simulations which is so much more rewarding and I'm now making more than my last boss was. Best advice I can give you is either:

-learn to program, software companies love physicists with good programming knowledge;

-or follow what you're interested in. I love astrophysics but I switched to materials science for the prospects/grants. Trying to read papers made me want to kill myself and I just couldn't be fucked doing any work. If you hate your field, you'll be shit at it

B.S. Comp Sci here.

>saturated industry where graduates are a dime a dozen
>master race

>ywn be Donald Trump

So reapply if that's something you really want. If not, try something else. Where's the problem?
Although I agree. They have a great flexibility in their system there.

Thank you! That's helpful. I am interested in both physics and programming so the first option is appeaing

I am currently working on my doctors degree in Informatics. Its breddy gut.
Also I am working on my black belt in Okinawan Karate.
This board helped me a long way but I believe I will never have made it in the eyes of Veeky Forums.

Nope, im an uneducated wageslave

Don't worry. Engineers are slaves too. They just get paid a bit better.

top kek m8.
You have to be a top tier architect to gain decent money.
Studying architecture because you find it interesting is one way to go, studying it because you expect an easy life filled with job opportunities is dumb.

>Cuckgineering

Have fun being cuckolded.

This is shockingly accurate.

They have hope of eacaping their slavery by making enough money and contacts.
As an immigrant minimum pay wageslave i have no hope of anything

Lol poli Sci here lol

I'm graduating in digital Design with an empasis on Web development.

I fully expect to not land a good job until in my early 30s and be worked like a slave to make meh-tier money

Don't worry, you're not alone.
We're gonna make it bruh

Thanks bruh

recruiters like physicists as developers because we're usually better problem solvers and have solid mathematical background

I would recommend having examples of your work if you're going to do that. I got hired because I'm a lazy cunt and write bots to automate everything I do, which turned into a great portfolio

>worked as a builder for 5 years after high school because I was retarded
>now have a doctorate and make a shitload of money writing software

it's not too late bro, hard work is your friend

MIS major here. Feels breddy good.

Brehs. I worked at a warehouse, a movie theater, construction companies until I was 27. It's never too late to fix it.

Mechanical engineering with minor on electrical engineering master race here, move along working class scum

Engineer reportan.

I dropped out of engineering after realising I'd have to work with the type of cunts on my course.

I've literally never been such a large group of try hard faggots who think they're the smartest people ever. They're an absolute nightmare to be around.

Now I work in the third sector which is pretty cool. Surrounded by people who care for the charity they work for and just want to work with like minded people to achieve their charity's goals.

Mechanical and material engineer here. I can confirm engineering is a meme.

If you are young you are a slave of old engineers, you only got paid a little bit better.

Infact one of my friends work cleaning old people asses and he is winning only 200 € less than me.

Of course his job is worse but anyways I throught away 7 years of my life.

>implying you don't have to work when you graduate as an engi

Doing European Law with French Law in the UK.
Get on my level nerd.

Chemeng here...plz leave and never come back pleb

The only way to get ahead as an engineer is to work retarded hours too.

Why the fuck would I waste the prime of my life working 60+ hour weeks?

Most engineers are beta as shit and refuse to stand up for themselves so get walked all over by their employers. At least they can brag about their meme degree I guess. I'm so glad I got out of that shit.

>falsified results
What the shit? How is that kind of stuff not checked 3 times before and after publishing?

Thats everybody starting in a career bro

Theres no making it in anywhere without working like 50+ hours a wekk

I'm like a skinny you. MBA+accounting degree this year and a degree in structural engineering after that.

I'll have 3 degrees + 3 masters before 30.

Yeah.. issues finishing shit. After all that I'm going to inherit our family business anyway. But it's good to have options.

Still able to get a law degree as well. Finished 2 years of everything, takes 3 to get a degree.

Life is boring.

Most of the established disciplines are so done to death at this point from the mass proliferation of PhDs that in order to find novel research they've spread out to such esoteric extremes that only a handful of people on earth have any idea what you're talking about.

As such, you can make up data that supports your view and there is an extremely low probability that anyone capable of disputing it will ever come across it in one of the hundreds of journals published every month. It only becomes a problem if your research gets picked up and someone tries to use it to develop something functional, like happened a few years back with that physicist that was claiming to make working nano signals that people then wanted to use in nanotechnology.

He is the last guy who checks it before it's published, and he's clearly not going to raise the issue. I could raise it, but I'll be fired for it so it's not worth it.

It's not like it's an outright lie, maybe you "accidentally" write a 3 instead of a 5, or drop a decimal places etc. The journal editor and the editors usually don't see anything wrong with it. Normally it would be picked up in a repeat by someone else, but there's no money in those so no one does them.

It's pretty easy to get away with

>Saturated
>dime a dozen

PhD student in high energy theory here (AdS/CFT). I love physics, but it's a huge field and it is reasonable to be totally uninterested in some aspects of it. For instance I never cared about solid state physics, experimental stuff and so on. However, no matter what you end up liking, it's impossible to truly appreciate it if you don't get the underlying mathematics (at least to some level).

Yeah, I have friends at CERN who tell me that there's a lot of politics involved, to the point that somewhat dubious results get published in time for a deadline. I've been to some pheno talks where people just pick whatever results suit them to make the data fit. Pretty shocking, but I'm not really in a position to talk since my work has ~0 grounding in reality.

Anyway the postdoc job market is atrocious, so I might just call it quits after my doctorate. I have a few papers to my name so it's been a decent run.

>won't be pursuing a career of doubles
check this career m8

Fucking get the best God damn GPA you can.

I graduated as an Honors Scholar with my Bachelors with a 3.8.

My buddy, also an Honors Scholar, graduated with a 3.2.

Our starting salary difference was almost 20k.

GPA GPA GPA GPA.

Side note, actually try to learn the shit and understand it, don't just study to pass the tests. Then when you get into the real world, you'll have a much better handle on things than 90% of grads.

Engineer/ part time grad student

Haha, CPA from yesterday here,

Yea man, after busting my ass from 18 to 24, I'm on cruise control now.

Been thinking about law just for shits and giggles.

>doesn't it suck when you realize your parents were right and all that hard hard hard work I college will pay off if you graduate with high scores and merit?

Like really... Fucking college was grueling. Now it's cruise control into the next promotion and fun with the wife and kids all the time outside of work.

>Can't be fucked to do any work
I think anyone who says this about their job, regardless of education or field, is going to fail. Unless they are in politics.

Mechanical engineer here, your pleb major means shit.

I work at babcucks&willcucks

Im paid more than almost all the engineers in our plant. I'm also mid/high tier finance, not even top level.

Engineering is becoming a meme.

Finance/accounting FTW

What? Do you also not believe that everyone has a 7 inch dick and is 6 fit tall?

>engineering

pfff hahahaha

master's in pharmacology reporting in, feels good to know just as much (if not more) physiology than all the kines/sports sci bros while actually being in a marketable field :^)

>high school diploma
>2 years in trade school
>make 6 figures in 6 months working around the world.

And people told me I should have went to college, kek.

I'm 6 foot, 240 pounds at 12% body fat. I graduated summa cum laude from Northwestern as a 20 year old before finishing my PhD at Harvard, where I had a 4.3 GPA. I have a 430 pound raw natural bench press and can squat 630 pounds (raw and naturally, as well). I've slept with 73 women (who's counting?) and I eat a rigid diet every day of the same things which has been created by world class dietitians (note how I said dietitians, not nutritionists) from London, England. I'm currently natural and plan (I will) break all the raw all time total records within 8 years. My programming has been laid out years in advance by Mike Tuchscherer, a world class powerlifting coach, himself. I think I got things covered.

so what do you do?

kek

I've done different things. Scaffold building at oil refineries, welding, basic NDT stuff.

Mostly welding though.

Lies on an anonymous Korean hologram board

Surprisingly not lying this time famalam.

Accountant/mba/CPA from earlier. Alot of us are being honest man. No need to lie on a shit covered dildo throwing anime board

So you are basically higher qualified travelling labourer?
Interesting. Definitely not as boring as sitting in one job in one place for 30 years just to count some arbitrary numbers go up.

Body deterioration

Am I fucked brehs
I'm not gonna make it
